+
+## Visual Decision
+
+Approved for the continuous batch run. v2 reads as Gong Zhi through olive-brown light armor, a rugged mountain-guide cloak, a short dao, and map-command poses. It is more grounded and local than Wu Yi, less scholarly than Fa Zheng, and avoids the bright heroic silhouette used by the main officers.

+## Notes
+
+v1 was visually good but too narrow at battle scale. v2 widens the assembled body and cloak while preserving the modest Wuling route-guide identity.
